Wow that really sucks but does have a bright light as well. Is your wife out of the hospital?

Was the accident in bad weather? Was the tanker at a full stop? If so wow the Montero really held up well.

So sorry to hear about your loss. I can't even begin to imagine what's going through both of your minds over that. I'm happy to hear the Monty protected you both at least.

I reread all the work you put into rebuilding your engine and bringing it back up to speed. Even your consideration of selling it for 3500. I'm glad you didn't sell it and end up buying something that wouldn't have protected you and your wife as well. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />

I can't help to think about how close I am to all the abortion drama here in Bellevue, with the doctor being shot to death in Kansas. And my wife and sister in law that are Nicu nurses, it's just a terrible thing to do to a family.

GW, That Montero did all it could to protect you in a horrible situation. Sorry for your loss of child. We hope your fiance a fast recovery so the two of you can get back on with life and that her injuries do not prevent child bearing in the future.
